I didn't find this forum until the wee hours of the morning. I returned home from the concert, Wes, and simply couldn't sleep, I was so wired. So, I immediately started exploring on the internet and landed here. So glad to discover all of you fellow Gordon Lightfoot fans out there!

It was a thrill to see Gordon and the band in person for the 3rd time. I admit to shedding a tear when I learned the reason (from Gordon after the intermission) for Terry Clements' absence from the stage. I hadn't heard that Terry had "left the planet," as Gordon said. Such a loss. I thought Carter Lancaster did a fine job.

Except for the conduct of a presumably inebriated woman in the balcony (who insisted on yelling throughout, "We love you!" and who loudly pestered everyone in the audience to "get up and dance!"), I thought the crowd response was great.

I'm sorry I didn't know about this site in advance. It would have been a pleasure to meet you, Wes. What did you think about the concert?

Looking forward to checking back here from time to time. I feel I've found a home here among an elite group of Gordon Lightfoot fans!
